    Question

    A train covers a distance of 10 km in 12 minutes. Find its speed (in km/h).

    A.

    5

    B.

    500

    C.

    50

    D.

    5.5

    Correct option is C

    Given:
    Distance = 10 km
    Time = 12 minutes

    Formula Used:

    Speed=DistanceTime\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}

    Solution:

    Convert time to hours:

    12 minutes = 1260\frac{12}{60} = 0.2 hours

    Speed = 100.2=1002\frac{10}{0.2} = \frac{100}{2}​ = 50 km/h

    So, the speed of the train is 50 km/h.

    Thus, the correct answer is (c).
